Kanye West stopped his show last night the moment he found out his wife had been held at gunpoint.

The reality star, 35, was threatened by FIVE armed masked men dressed as police officers while her husband was performing in New York.

Kanye was midway through a performance of his single Heartless when he discovered the news live on-stage.

As the music cut out, Kanye informed the crowd that there had been an incident and he had to end the show immediately.

He told fans: "I'm sorry there's been a family emergency I have to stop the show."

As Kanye exited the stage to comfort his wife, some of the crowd appeared to become angry, with one screaming: "What the f**k?"

Organisers of the festival later tweeted: "Due to an emergency, Kanye West had to end his performance early. Please get home safely."
